Thanks!

Hi Kristen. Two questions: (1) What font type are you using? (2) Where is this appearing (menu? slide level?)
I am using Arial and I am not sure how to answer the second question. The strange part is that I have created a number of subfiles from an original PPT and most of them do not show this issue.

Can I global search and replace Arial?
Yes, but only assuming you have Arial currently set as your Theme Font within the Design tab. If not, then unfortunately you'll have to update each instance.
